if you have not had the pleasure of meeting him, there are not enough words.

Melnyk is one of my favorite people on the planet.

a classic "they broke the mold after him" kind of guy.

I would buy a DVD of him reading the phone book!

Historically outposts like Montauk, Key West and Alaska attract a special breed of person, adventurous spirits - not the condo commandos or rich address status seekers that infest Montauk, the Hamptons and the Keys now.

Mundus never cared for Montauk itself, he was there for the fish around it - this is the only subject we disagreed on, there are times you can get skunked at Montauk but if I run into a few locals (names withheld) the expense of getting there is always worth the price of admission.

downside- it may bring in more googs to Montauk
upside - it will document what is best of a vanishing breed. which is infinitely more important

	the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.
